Weekend Work

Friday was an unintended off day. I'll be caught up by tomorrow.

Saturday was Helen (run 400m, 21 KB swings with Nancy's 25lb.KB, 12 pullups 3x for time). Finished this in 8:33. Some guy asked Nancy at the gym if I was training for the Olympics. She said no, Ironman Lake Placid.

Waited all of 3 minutes and did a tabata workout. Pushups, squats, sit ups, pullups.
Sets were;
Pushups=12,12,12,12,12,12,11,11
Squats=15,12,12,11,11,9,11,11
Situps=9,9,9,8,8,8,8,8
Pullups=4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4
Overall not bad considering Helen was still fresh.

Today was run a mile, rest 8 minutes 4x.
Times for each mile were;
1)6:15
2)6:05
3)6:03
4)6:02

This workout hurt a lot. I needed every bit of the 8 minute break in between sets.

  1. I want to run fast like you someday dan! Yeah the pull buoy puts your body in better alignment for swimming by holding up your hips high in the water so your not dragging them behind you which slows you down.
